Major Hayden e57593dfd4 Automate the STIG documentation 
With the upcoming changes to rebase onto the RHEL 7 STIG controls,
there needs to be a new solution for documentation that is easier
to manage and filter. This patch automates the generation of the STIG
control documentation in the following way:

* A Sphinx extension runs early in the doc build process that writes
  all of the individual STIG control docs as well as ToC pages.
* ToC pages are now sorted by severity, tag, and implementation status.
* A giant listing of controls is easier to navigate now.
* Docs are generated from metadata in the /doc/metadata directory. New
  documentation only needs to be added there. (Will explain this in
  the developer notes in a subsequent patch.)

Special Case

Running virtual infrastructure requires IP forwarding to be enabled on various interfaces. The STIG allows for this, so long as the system is being operated as a router (as is the case for an OpenStack host).
